Why the restriction to ANSI labelled tapes? It ought to be allowed for any data set using the supported access methods (QSAM, BSAM). This would be precious for access to HFS files in ASCII, for example. And I'm curious: If I specify CCSID=1047 on the JOB/EXEC statement, and CCSID=819 on the DD statement, does the access method perform the LF<-->NL as iconv() does? Can I specify CCSID=819 on the JOB/EXEC statement and CCSID=1047 on the DD statement? Why not? Does the access method use iconv() internally?
